Graduate Probability: Expected distance of an accelerating car - with a twist
It is discrete: each time a number is generated it is a turn, and the velocity is changed and the car is moved forward. For example, given the sequence of generated numbers: 53 04 34 60 23 47, that is 6 turns and the car is moved 1+2+3+0+1+2 = 9 units. What I am trying to figure out is the...- HexNash

Graduate Probability: Expected distance of an accelerating car - with a twist
I have an expected value probability problem. Unfortunately, I do not know enough about mathematics to determine if it is even remotely feasible to try to solve it. The best way to explain it is to disguise it as a physics problem: Imagine a race car on a never-ending straight track. Let's call...- HexNash
